Safety Precautions To Guard against Possible Injury...A minimum of five wraps of cable around the drumbarrel is necessary to hold the rated load. Cableclamp is not designed to hold the load.A. Keep yourself and others a safe distance to the side of the

cable when pulling under load.

B. Do not step over a cable, or near a cable under load.

C. Use supplied hook strap when handling hook for spoolingwire rope.

D. Do not move the vehicle to pull a load on the winch cable.This could result in cable breakage and/or winch damage.

E. Use a heavy rag or gloves to protect hands from burrswhen handling winch cable.

F. Apply blocks to wheels when vehicle is on an incline.

G. Winch clutch should be disengaged when winch is not inuse and fully engaged when in use.

H. Modification, alteration, or deviation to the winch shouldonly be made by Ramsey Winch Company.

I. Keep the duration of your pulls as short as possible. If themotor becomes uncomfortably hot to the touch, stop andlet it cool for a few minutes. Do not pull more than oneminute at or near rated load. Do not maintain power to thewinch if the motor stalls. Electric winches are for intermit-tent usage and should not be used in constant duty appli-cations.

J. Disconnect the remote control switch from the winchwhen not in use. A Ramsey Part No. 282053 safety on-offswitch in your vehicle is recommended.

K. NOTE: Do not use winch in hoisting applications due torequired hoist safety factors and features.

L. Do not exceed maximum line pull ratings shown in tables.Shock loads must not exceed these ratings.

M. To respool correctly, it is necessary to keep a slight loadon the cable. This can be accomplished by (wearinggloves) holding the cable with one hand and the remotecontrol switch with the other, starting as far back and inthe center as you can, walking up keeping load on thecable as the winch is powered in. Do not allow the cableto slip through your hand and do not approach the winchtoo closely. Turn off the winch and repeat the procedureuntil all the cable except a few feet is in. Disconnect the

remote control switch and finish spooling in cable by rotat-ing the drum by hand with clutch disengaged. On hiddenwinches, spool in cable under power using supplied hookstrap.

Tips for Safe OperationDon’t underestimate the potential danger in winching opera-tions. Neither should your fear them. Do learn the basic dan-gers and avoid them.

Observe the spooling of cable onto drum. Side pulls cancause cable to pileup at one end of the drum. To correctuneven stacking, spool out that section of the cable and moveit to the other end of the drum and continue winching. Unevenspooling which causes cable pileup can interfere with thesolenoid housing causing damage to the winch.

Store the remote control switch inside your vehicle where itwill not become damaged. Inspect it before you plug it in.

When ready to begin spooling in, plug in remote controlswitch with clutch disengaged. Do not engage clutch withmotor running.

Never connect the hook back to the cable. This causes cabledamage. Always use a sling or chain or suitable strength, asshown in the illustration.

Observe your winch while winching, if possible, while stand-ing at a safe distance. If you use vehicle drive to assist, stopand get out every few feet to assure the cable is not piling upin one corner. Jamming cable can break your winch.

Do not attach tow hooks to winch mounting apparatus. Theymust attach to vehicle frame.

When double lining during stationary winching, the winchhook should be attached to the chassis of the vehicle.

Since the greatest pulling power is achieved on the innermostlayer of your winch, it is desirable to pull off as much line asyou can for heavy pulls. If this is not practical, use a snatchblock and double the arrangement (see illustration).Remember, a minimum of 5 wraps of cable around the drumbarrel is necessary to hold the rated load.

Neat, tight spooling avoids cable binding which is causedwhen a load is applied and the cable is pinched between twoothers. If this happens, alternately power the winch in and outa few inches. Do not attempt to work a bound cable underload, free by hand.

Techniques of Operation

The best way to get acquainted with how your winchoperates is to make a few test runs before you actuallyneed to use it. Plan your test in advance. Rememberyou hear your winch as well as see it operate. Get torecognize the sound of a light steady pull, a heavy pull,and sounds caused by load jerking or shifting. Soon youwill gain confidence in operating your winch and its usewill become second nature with you.

Your winch will not only pull your vehicle up or ease yourvehicle down a steep grade, it will also pull another vehi-cle or a load while your vehicle is anchored in a station-ary position. The sketches on this page show you a fewtechniques.

When pulling a heavy load, place a blanket, jacket or tar-paulin over the cable five or six feet from the hook. Itwill slow the snap back in the event of a broken cable.Also, open the vehicle hood for additional protection.

Use the vehicle wheel power to help the winch, but don'tovertake the winch line. Plan your pull. You can'talways hook up and pull out in one step. Examine all theareas for anchoring possibilities as well as leverage situ-ations, direction, and goal.

For basic self-recovery, anchor to a tree or heavy rock.

When anchoring to a tree, always use a tree trunk pro-

tector.

Stakes driven in solid earth and chained together make a

good anchor point for self-recovery when no solid

anchor point is available.

For a solid anchor, bury a log with earth or sand or place

it in a deep ravine.

Winches equipped with cable guide fairleads can pull

from several directions. Pull from an angle only to

straighten up the vehicle-otherwise you can damage

structural members or other parts of your vehicle and

cause excess cable buildup on one end of the winch

drum.

For a direct pull of 2000 lbs., hitch truck to a tree or

solid anchor, and take out of gear.

To double the pull, use 2-part line and tie off to chassis.

Take out of gear.

Installation

The winch shown in this owner’s manual is solely and exclu-sively designed for vehicle mounted, non-industrial applica-tions. All other applications will void warranty.

NOTE: For specific bull-bar applications, the shifter lever onthe winch may need to be repositioned. Refer to pages 7-8 forinstructions in how to do this.

It is very important that the winch be mounted on a flat sur-face so that the three major sections (the motor end, the cabledrum, and the gear housing end) are properly aligned. It isrecommended that Ramsey kits be used to mount the winch.They are designed to align the winch and distribute up to thefull rated load evenly, to avoid possible damage to the winchor vehicle.

NOTE: If recommended mounting is not used, a kit of equaldesign must be used.

Also available for mounting the Patriot Profile 6000, 8000,9000 and 9500 are the following winch mounting channels:

• #251126 short length (23.63”) black

• #251127 medium length (30.00”) black

• #251128 long length (36.00”) black

It is recommended that Ramsey mounting channels be usedwith all non-Ramsey mounting.

For mounting the winch with a standard mounting channel,such as those available from Ramsey, use (4) 1-1/4” longmounting bolts as shown below.

* In specific Bull Bar installations, (2) 1-3/4” long bolts(included) may need to be substituted for 1-1/4” bolts tomount the winch properly. Refer to Detail A below: if themounting thickness (dimension A) is .25” or less, use 1-1/4” long bolts. If dimension A is greater than .25”, youshould use 1-3/4” long bolts. If dimension A is between.25” and .56”, washers may need to be added to the 1-3/4” bolts to prevent the end of the bolt from hitting thewinch foot, as shown in Detail B.

Do not use the longer bolts unless needed. Using boltsthat are too long may cause damage to the winch. Aftertightening mounting bolts, confirm that they have sufficientclearance (see Detail B) above the end of the bolt. Somethread should be visible above the nut.

** For mounting to Bull Bar, the roller fairlead may need tobe rotated 180° to ensure proper alignment to drum.

Attach fairlead to channel using hardware furnished withwinch. Attach winch to channel. Thread capscrews withlockwashers through mounting holes in channel and intowinch feet (see Figure previous page).

Substitution of attaching hardware items (bolts, nuts orwashers) different from those supplied with your winchand mounting kit can lead to failure causing damage orserious injury (use SAE grade 5 bolts or better andtorque to 34 ft.lbs.).

Place end of wire rope through fairlead and attach cablehook. Use clevis pin and cotter pin.

To mount Solenoid Assembly, use included SolenoidMounting Bracket. Mount bracket to tie bar using (1)1/4-20NC x 1” capscrew in place of 3/4” tie bar cap-screw. Install bracket to back of solenoid using includednuts and lockwashers.

When mounting winch, connect labeled motor leadscoming from solenoid assembly to appropriately markedmotor terminals as shown lower right. Tighten nuts onmotor terminals securely. Attach solenoid ground wireto ground bolt located on bottom of motor (Batteryground wire is already installed to grounding bolt onmotor).

Repositioning Shifter for Specific Bull Bar Applications

Note: The shifter is positioned correctly for most applications. It will only need to be repositioned as necessary forspecific bull bar applications.

Refer to the Parts List and Exploded Parts Diagram for your specific winch elsewhere in this owner’s manual.

1. Position winch as shown in Figure 1. Remove screws from tiebars. You may be able to loosen the screws at themotor end without removing them. Pull the Gear Housing assembly from the drum and shaft and set it down onthe work bench with the Gear Housing Cover up. Remove the drum bushing from the Gear Housing assembly orthe end of the drum. Set aside.

2. Remove (6) capscrewsfrom the Gear HousingCover. Holding the GearHousing Cover over theGear Housing assem-bly, flip it over and set iton the workbench.

3. Gently lift the Gear Housing assembly,working the gears, bushings, etc. thatare inside the Gear Housing out so thatthey are left stacked on the workbench.See Figure 2.

4. Turn the Gear Housing assembly overand set on workbench. Remove theRetainer (item #37) by removing sixcapscrews (item #21) from Gear EndBearing (item 13). Once the retainer isremoved, the Ring Gear (item #10),Cam Ring (item #36), and Locking Ring(item #34) can be lifted off the endbearing.

Remove the six springs (item #38) fromthe end bearing.

5. Determine position shifter knob needs to be foryour application. Note: Shifter knob cannot bepositioned too low or it will interfere with the feeton the Gear End Bearing (see Range of Position inFigure 4).

6. To position the shifter knob, place locking ring inend bearing with stop post approximately 180°

from where shifter knob needs to be positioned.Place cam ring over locking ring in proper posi-tion and confirm that shifter knob will move fromengaged to disengaged position without interfer-ence. Mark position of stop post on end bearing.

7. Remove cam ring and locking ring from end bearing. Insert springs (item #38) into end bearing. When youreplace the locking ring (item #34) over the springs, be sure the springs compress down into their recesses,and don’t bend sideways.

8. Reassemble Gear Housing as shown in Figure 3. Make sure locking ring is positioned with stop post at markedlocation. The capscrews (item #38) for the retainer should be tightened to 40-45 in-lbs. Do not over-tighten.

9. Place Gear Housing over the stacked gears, etc. that you removed in step 3. Gently work the housing over thestack, turning it as needed to mesh the planetary gears with the ring gear in the housing. Once they are all in thehousing, flip the assembly over. Align the Gear Housing Cover and gasket with the holes in the ring gear. Replacethe (6) capscrews that hold the Gear Housing Cover onto the Gear Housing. Tighten securely.

10. Move the Shifter to the Disengaged position.

11. Turn the Gear Housing over and set it on the workbench with the Gear Housing Cover down. SeeFigure 5.

12. Install the drum bushing into the Gear Housing, con-firming that the slot in the bushing is aligned withthe key in the end bearing. Pick up the rest of thewinch (drum and motor end), and holding the drum,lower the winch onto the gear end. Stab the shaftinto the gear end--you may need to turn the drumslightly to get the shaft to go all the way in.

13. Place the tiebars on the motor end and gear end andfasten using (4) screws. Tighten securely.

14. Once the winch is reassembled, turn it so that it issitting on its feet. Confirm that the cable willfreespool when the shifter is in the Disengaged posi-tion. Connect up the winch temporarily and confirmthat the cable spools when the shifter is in theEngaged position.

Operating Instructions

The winch clutch allows rapid unspooling of the wirerope for hooking onto the load or anchor point. Theclutch is operated by the shifter knob located on the gearhousing end of the winch as follows:

1. To disengage the clutch, move the clutch shifter knobto the “OUT” position. Wire rope may now befreespooled off the drum.

2. To engage the clutch, move the clutch shifter knobinto the “IN” position. The winch is now ready forpulling.

Electrical Connections and Operations

For normal self-recovery work, your existing electricalsystem is adequate. Your battery must be kept in goodcondition. A fully charged battery and proper connec-tions are essential. Run the vehicle engine during winch-ing operations to keep battery charged.

Route battery cables up to battery.

CAUTION: BE SURE BATTERY CABLES ARE NOT DRAWN TAUT

ACROSS ANY SURFACES WHICH COULD POSSIBLY DAMAGE THEM.

Connect red cable to positive (+) battery terminal.Connect black ground cable to negative (-) terminal ofbattery (See Figure 1).

Models Equipped with Push Button Remote ControlSwitch

The remote control switch is water proof. It has pushbuttons on either side. Make sure the motor has stoppedfully before reversing. To actuate winch simply plugremote control switch into receptacle in cover of winch.Run winch forward and reverse to check directions.Snap appropriate “IN” and “OUT” disc into proper thumbcavity. Do not leave switch plugged in when winch isnot in use.

Models Equipped with Wireless Remote Control

See Installation and Operating Instructions for Ramsey

Universal Remote Control (OM-914057) included withthe wireless remote.

Maintenance

All moving parts in the winch are permanently lubricatedwith high temperature lithium grease at the time ofassembly. Under normal conditions factory lubricationwill suffice.

Lubricate cable periodically using light penetrating oil.Inspect the cable for broken strands and replace if nec-essary. If the cable becomes worn or damaged, it mustbe replaced.

Corrosion on electrical connections will reduce perform-ance or may cause a short. Clean all connections espe-cially in the remote control switch and receptacle. Insalty environments use a silicone sealer to protect fromcorrosion.

To minimize corrosion of the internal motor componentsthat may occur due to condensation, power the winch inor out periodically. Energizing the motor will generateheat, which will help dissipate any moisture buildup inthe motor. This should be performed at periodic intervals(such as with each oil change to your vehicle). Note:Refer to the Troubleshooting Guide if the motor has beensubmerged.

Cable Installation

1. Unwind the new cable by rolling it out along theground to prevent kinking.

2. Remove old cable and observe the manner in which itis attached to the cable drum flange.

3. Before installing the new cable assembly, securelywrap the end of the cable with plastic tape or similartape to prevent fraying.

4. Position the cable drum so that the large 13/32”diameter hole in the motor end drum flange is approx-imately on the top.

5. Form a short bend (approximately 1/2” long) in theend of the cable. Insert the bend into the 13/32” holein the drum flange and then carefully run the winch inthe “reel in” direction approximately 3/4 revolutionuntil the 1/4” diameter threaded hole in the drumflange is on top.

6. Secure the cable to the drum flange using cableanchor and capscrew shown in the parts drawing onpage 11 (Item nos. 20 and 30). Securely tighten thecapscrew, but do not over-tighten.

7. Wind 5 wraps of cable onto the drum. Wind on therest of the cable by pulling in a light load to keep thetension constant. Allow the cable to swivel by using alength of chain or a swivel block between the cablehook and the load.

Condition Possible Cause Correction

Defective or stuck solenoid

Jar each solenoid to free contacts. Check each solenoid by applying 12 volts to coil terminal (it should make an audible click when energized).

Defective remote control switch

Disengage winch clutch, remove remote control switch plug from the socket and jump pins at 8 and 4 o'clock. Motor should run. Jump pins at 8 and 10 o'clock. Motor should run.

Long period of operation Cooling off periods are essential to prevent overheating.

Insufficient battery Check battery terminal voltage under load. If 10 volts or less, replace or parallel another batter to it.

Bad connection Check battery cable for corrosion; clean and grease.

Insufficient charging system

Replace with larger capacity charging system

MOTOR RUNS, BUT DRUM DOES NOT TURN

Clutch not engaged If clutch engaged but symptom still exists, it will be necessary to disassemble winch to determine cause and repair.

Defective or stuck solenoid

Jar each solenoid to free contacts. Check each solenoid by applying 12 volts to coil terminal (it should make an audible click when energized).

Defective remote control switch

Disengage winch clutch, remove remote control switch plug from the socket and jump pins at 8 and 4 o'clock. Motor should run. Jump pins at 8 and 10 o'clock. Motor should run.

Defective motor If solenoids operate, check for voltage at armature post; replace motor.

Loose Connections Tighten connections on bottom side of hood and on motor.

MOTOR WATER DAMAGED

Submerged in water or water from high pressure car wash

Allow to drain and dry thoroughly, then run motor without load in short bursts to dry windings.

MOTOR RUNS IN ONLY ONE DIRECTION

MOTOR RUNS EXTREMELY HOT

MOTOR RUNS, BUT WITH INSUFFICIENT POWER, OR WITH LOW LINE SPEED.

MOTOR WILL NOT OPERATE
